Strange behaviour


Hi, this is Lakshmi again and I have another bird who , when
I put my hand in a circle , bites me and rubs his butt. Me and my family don’t know what his gender is or how old he is, but
it looks very odd.


Answer:

Hi Lakshmi,

This sounds like hormonal behavior. It is best to discourage this type of behavior by distracting him to do something else like play with a toy.

Thank you for asking Lafeber,

Brenda
